NIGERIA child abductions not confined to Chibok

Focus on Africa

Available for over a year

While the case of the Chibok girls gained global attention, their case is not unusual. A year ago at least 300 children were kidnapped from another town- Damasak. Thousands of women have been forced to live under Boko Haram, to marry fighters, to live under their brutal interpretation of Islam. But as the Âé¶¹Éç's Alastair Leithead has been finding out in the town of Yola, its not just the trauma of going through that experience, its also the trauma of coming home.
